DESCRIPTION

The New-RubrikSnapshot cmdlet will trigger an on-demand snapshot for a specific object (virtual machine, database, fileset, etc.)

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Get-RubrikVM 'Server1' | New-RubrikSnapshot -Forever

This will trigger an on-demand backup for any virtual machine named "Server1" that will be retained indefinitely and available under Unmanaged Objects.

EXAMPLE 2

Get-RubrikFileset 'C_Drive' | New-RubrikSnapshot -SLA 'Gold'

This will trigger an on-demand backup for any fileset named "C_Drive" using the "Gold" SLA Domain.

EXAMPLE 3

Get-RubrikDatabase 'DB1' | New-RubrikSnapshot -ForceFull -SLA 'Silver'

This will trigger an on-demand backup for any database named "DB1" and force the backup to be a full rather than an incremental.

EXAMPLE 4

Get-RubrikOracleDB -Id OracleDatabase:::e7d64866-b2ee-494d-9a61-46824ae85dc1 | New-RubrikSnapshot -ForceFull -SLA Bronze

This will trigger an on-demand backup for the Oracle database by its ID, and force the backup to be a full rather than an incremental.

EXAMPLE 5

New-RubrikSnapShot -Id MssqlDatabase:::ee7aead5-6a51-4f0e-9479-1ed1f9e31614 -SLA Gold

This will trigger an on-demand backup by ID, in this example it is the ID of a MSSQL Database

EXAMPLE 6

New-RubrikSnapShot -Id MssqlDatabase:::ee7aead5-6a51-4f0e-9479-1ed1f9e31614 -SLA Gold -SLAPrimaryClusterId 57bbd327-477d-40d8-b1d8-5820b37d88e5

This will trigger an on-demand backup by ID, in this example it is the ID of a MSSQL Database, creating a snapshot in the Gold SLA on the cluster id specified in SLAPrimaryClusterId
